Highlights
Pet care experience
Friendly home-from-home pet sitters
Hi! We’re Matt and Sophie, and if you’re looking for somewhere your pet will truly feel at home, hopefully we’re your people! We’ve got two of our own — Jack, our 19-year-old cat who’s been part of the family for years, and Milo, our 2-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who brings plenty of energy and silliness to our days. We also have a 15-month-old little boy, so it’s fair to say our house is never quiet! But it’s a really warm, happy home and our animals are absolutely at the heart of it. Matt works from home, so your pet will have company throughout the day rather than being left on their own — which we know makes a huge difference. We’ve both grown up around animals our whole lives and genuinely love caring for them. We know how nerve-wracking it can be leaving your pet with someone new, so we always make sure to send plenty of photos and videos to keep you updated while you’re away. Every pet is different, and we’re happy to work around whatever your pet needs — whether that’s long walks, playtime in the garden, or just a quiet lap to sleep on. Feel free to get in touch — we’d love to hear about your pet! Matt and Sophie 🐾

Safety comes first in everything i do. Because i work from home, pets are supervised throughout the day, with regular check-ins, safe routines, and careful attention to their individual needs.
Ratings and reviews
Your a Star! Not only did Matt come over before I went away to get the key, say hi to Bunny, and see where the cat food was kept etc. Matt while I was away, gave my cat some fuss, washed the cat feeder boles and also helped me with a sudden fly invasion to which I'm so grateful for. Thank you Matt!
Matt came and looked after my 2 cats and tortoise while I was away over the weekend. He did a fab job of looking after them and I would highly recommend!! He took time to come and meet everyone and learn all of the animals routines which was reassuring to see. I got regular updates and photos which was a bonus.
I knew immediately that all would be well when even the most shy of my cats were happy to meet Matt. I've come home to a chilled out household. It doesn't get any better than this!
Matt and his partner came over to do a meet and greet prior to our booking which was a great way to tell them everything about the boys and get to know them. We really appreciated this extra step! Matt provided some fantastic pictures and kept us regularly updated whilst we were away and we came home to two very happy cats! He accommodated our booking on very short notice too which was extremely helpful :) I would be more than happy to recommend Matt and will be in touch in the future for further bookings!
Matt looked after my two cats and was brilliant. Really reliable, kept me updated, & I felt at ease knowing they were being looked after properly. He’s also helped me out walking my dog a few times, which has been a massive help. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy with their pets!
I can’t recommend Matt enough as a pet sitter! He has looked after both my dog and cats multiple times and I’ve always felt completely confident leaving them in his care. He’s reliable, trustworthy and genuinely loves animals. My pets were well looked after and happy. He took the time to understand their little personalities and treated them as if they were his own. I’d recommend him to anyone!
